Good Wednesday, everyone. Snow showers and squalls are pulling away from the region early today, leaving us with a little better weather for a few days. Even as the overall pattern for the next few weeks skews toward colder, spring is showing some signs of life this weekend.

Before we get to that, let’s start with what’s going on out there today. Slick roads may start our Wednesday, especially across the eastern half of the state. The flakes will quickly move east around daybreak, but some flurries may still fly in the far east…

Temps out there today will be in the 20s to start and upper 30s and low 40s to end. Temps in the west will be a little milder.

Thursday looks REALLY good with temps hitting the 50s under a mostly sunny sky. Western Kentucky will see the 60s.

The setup from there will be pretty active, with a healthy temperature swing on the way. The system coming in Friday into early Saturday will be a chilly shower maker, and may even begin with a mix…

As that system goes through, it’s actually being pushed by a surge of spring temps for the weekend. We may be able to string together three pretty mild days in a row. Watch how the chilly goes to mild on the GFS…

That’s a setup I originally talked about developing, then I backtracked a little the past day or so, but I’m back on #teamspring. 🙂

Showers and some thunderstorms come in early next week, ahead of a system that tries to bring winter back in here by Tuesday and Wednesday…

Here’s hoping the weekend temps actually pan out before we get back into that ugly pattern.

I will have another update later today. Have a good one and take care.
